It shouldn't be too long now before the EU implements its regulation that requires phone batteries to be "easily replaceable with simple, easy to access tools", right?
That's going to be monumental for the lifespan of these devices, especially as phones get software support for longer and longer these days.
Please learn some facts about how the CMA operates before discounting it.
The CMA is independent from the government - it does not have a minister calling the shots.
The encryption stuff is coming from the Home Office, which is directly government controlled.
The CMA and the Home Office aren't working together at all - they don't even share an office.
This is not "the government" saying this. It's the independent competition and markets regulator known as the CMA which, whilst publicly funded, isn't run by the government.
Interesting. I wonder what new mechanics the sequel will have? To be honest, a graphical improvement and more types of hose attachments would probably be enough to justify a sequel - but I wonder if they're going to do more story stuff this time around? The original game had a fairly funny story, albeit entirely text-based.
Edit: found some more info

Markwayne is two names put together. It's greedy. Markwayne is a greedy man!
I think they're referring to the fact that you no longer can create accounts without using an email address. You were able to use a UI loophole to do it before via Old Reddit, but no more.
That isn't new, that's how ad networks work. Google owns one of the largest ad networks.
Great news.
However, I've become partial to having separate accounts across various instances. Sync enforces having separate settings for each account. I can see this becoming pretty annoying. Does anyone else feel this way?
He literally defended himself bowing to government censorship a few months ago. Keep up.
I wouldn't have any expectations of an iOS release, mate.
The bar for Lemmy apps is going to be raised significantly higher once this releases. What we have currently is ok, but there UI/UX of Sync is so much better.
The two servers in the UK are a furry server and a Scotland server....
The article you're commenting on is literally about the game's unsustainable hype and its impact on the industry.
It won Most Anticipated at TGA.
This is far from my favourite series, just enjoy shining a light on insane takes on Lemmy!
